Tuesday night was a Young Life dinner in preparation for Young Life Olympics, which is tonight. Now you know just about as much as I did going into it. Young Life is an organization for high school students that is founded with a few simple ideas about sharing the truth of God’s love with adolescents. It’s a cause that 10 organizations around town are asked to participate in games for, called the Olympics, that helps raise money to send students to camp. The fire department has been a part of it before, and are actually the reining champions!
Arriving at the dinner on Tuesday, we were greeted with teams sitting around group tables, of which I am proud to say we had the most people in attendance. After the meal (nachos) we were told that there were 10 minutes to make a team banner that would be judged and given points for. It seems that not many of Coal’s coworkers are creative…or ambitious…so Coal took charge and started organizing a really great banner. He’s a pro at flames, so I simply had to do some shading while my “roommate,” Vanessa helped add some flair. She’s an all-star cake designer, so it was right up her alley. Needless to say, the fire banner was the winner of this contest, racking in the full 60 points possible. We even got extra laughs for drawing a pig getting smacked by a slap-gel hand. 
I’ll try to post photos of the game tonight soon after! There’s also a softball game against the po-po’s on Tuesday!
